the life -history of this bark -louse, which
seems to be rapidly spreading over the

; We shall now suggest some remedies
' for its destruction : -
; 1. Newnan° infested trees carefully
during Mal and the beginning of June,
and a- soon 08 the tiny sloe are seen
it
crawling about spray the tree with the
followieg kerosene emulsion :--Ons•half
nand of 111102 5010) 111 0110 gallon of boil -
0 R
1
'i pound
venter ; t0 this add two gallons was
oil Fuld thoroughly mix. This on °°°ling,
1 if well mixed, will form a jellylike sub.
- stal,•a. When about to use, add nine
s parte cold water anal spray upon the
trees. 'Thorough mixing can bo effected
iby lowing the mixture through a force
pump wibh a small Roezlo until the whole
-1, forms 0 oroamy mass.
2. In the winter end spring scrape off
the trunk and Merger branches 150 ninny
of the scales as possible, and then
thoroughly scrub with a scrubbing -brush
or broom dipped hi the following solu-
tion :—One quart of soft soap, or one-
` quarter pound hard soap, in two quarts
of boiling water. To seven parts of tine
add one part of crude carbolic) aoid.
3. Soft scan made about- as' think as
paint by adding a strong solubiou of
'washing soda in water. This applied to
the treulc a,1c1 limbs improves the vigor
of the tree as well as gets rid of the bark -
I lice.
